I know I'm dumb, but did I mess this up beyond repair

I'll try to be as brief as possible. A few weeks ago I met this girl who I'd seen before but never talked to. She was in my classes in college. I've graduated and she's still in school. She's hot, but I never thought much about her. The first time I approached she somehow knew who I was, and she laughed and said she had a crush on me like a year ago.

 

So from there we've been chatting every few days, met up at bars a few times, etc. Earlier tonight I was supposed to go out with her, I guess on what you'd call a date, but I canceled it this afternoon and told her I had to work. Of course, I didn't have to work. I just got nervous. Now I have a lot of girl friends and they always tell me I'm 'really good looking' or 'hot' or all that of that stuff, but the problem is that once I'm actually into a girl I get nervous and stupid and awkward, I never know what to say or how to act, I'm always really boring at first, etc. I can only feel comfortable around women when I don't see them as a potential girlfriend. I can only get women when I've been drinking, and I don't "date," the dates I've gone on have been so boring, awkward and uncomfortable that I'm totally soured on the subject of it. I don't even know how to date.

 

Now, as expected, this girl is really upset. She thinks I'm blowing her off, which I would expect her to think ... And she probably thinks I think she's ugly or stupid or something, but I am into her, I do think she's cool, I just know if I put anything into this I'm going to end up looking stupid.

 

A hot girl basically admitted she had a crush on me the first time we met, begged me to ask her out, and I am still finding a way for it to not work. Ugh, I'm such a nerd.

Aww, that's adorable. :)

 

I think you should apologize for flaking, and call her up again and try to set a second date. SHOW UP to this one though!

 

Good luck!

Cmon dude, just call her up, apologize and ask her out again. AND FOLLOW THROUGH this time. it's not that big of a deal.
